My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Coca Cola has had a ton of different advertising slogans over the years, and we think quite a few of them apply to our sweet pup of the same name! For example…

“When Coca Cola is part of your life, you can’t beat the feeling” (1987)

“Have a Coca Cola and a Smile” (1979)

“Always Coca Cola” (1993)

“A sign of good taste” (1957)

You get the picture! Coca Cola originally came to the shelter after being abandoned, so he really deserves to find a happily ever after. He was adopted and spent nine months in a home but has unfortunately come back to the shelter because his person’s living situation has changed. His person loved him and had great things to say about him:

`Coca Cola is the sweetest pup you’ll ever know. He loves to go on walks as well as be right by your side. He’s a major lover and he enjoys meeting new friends! Whether it’s a furry friend or even just the maintenance man, this pup gets excited for anyone. He loves car rides as well as smelling everything. Cokes is the best family dog I could’ve asked for. He’ll snuggle up next to you or in between your legs, he enjoys having a good headrest. Loves his belly rubs and butt rubs, the neck I will say is his favorite area! He’s very food motivated and can learn very quickly and easily with time and patience:) Doesn’t bark at all, just the perfect dog to have!`

- Good with young kids
- Housebroken
- Enjoys hiking
- Affectionate, playful and loves toys
- Will benefit from continued crate training

Here’s what Coca Cola’s volunteer friends have said about him:

“Great walk with Coca Cola today. He was excited to go on his walk, wagging his tail happily and giving me a hug in his kennel. He walks very nicely, loves to sniff, and enjoys gentle affection. At the start of our walk, I crouched down to pick something up and felt a gentle brush of movement on my shoulder. When I turned my head, I came nose-to-nose with Mr. Coca Cola, who booped me gently as he sniffed my chin. Later on our walk, I sat down and he stood by my side for pets on his head, shoulders, back, and hips. A sweet guy who seems like he would open up quickly in the right home with someone who lets him set the pace.”

“I consistently walk Coca Cola and am pleased to see him start to become a more confident dog. He loves to follow scent trails and would probably benefit from some `find me` games. He loves treats! Coca Cola would likely do best in a quiet home wher
